Scotty McCreery Posts Photo From His Tropical Honeymoon

Newlywed Scotty McCreerynoted directly after his June 16 wedding that his wife, Gabi, wanted one thing for their French Polynesian honeymoon—and that was an overwater bungalow.

Well, it looks as if Mrs. McCreery got her wish, at least based on the pretty snapshot her new husband shared on Instagram, which shows the couple posed in front of an stunning ocean vista.

"Ia orana from Tahiti!" the American Idol alum captioned the photo, using the native language to say "hello" to all his fans. They certainly look as if they're having a relaxing time, don't they?

Following their adventure in paradise, the couple will experience life together in the same residence for the very first time, having both been living with roommates prior to their marriage.

The McCreerys have known each other since kindergarten, and they began dating about six years ago when they were seniors at Garner High School in Garner, N.C., around the time McCreery won Season 10 of American Idol. She’s been in several of his music videos, but he didn't reveal their relationship in public for years, until she was comfortable with it.

They got engaged in September 2017 after McCreery planned an elaborate proposal that took place during a hike to one of their favorite spots near Grandfather Mountain in North Carolina. The proposal is the subject of his latest single, "This Is It."
